The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 95 I Want To Talk About Gao Shun
"Who is this?"

Wearing a purple gold crown with tied hair on his head, a battle robe of red brocade and hundreds of flowers on his body, a chain armor with a beast face swallowing his head, and an exquisite lion belt around his waist, he carries a bow and arrow with him, and holds a square sky painted halberd. daunting.

People from left and right reported it, and Dong Zhuo couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Fruit general!"

Hearing Dong Zhuo's admiration, some people were naturally dissatisfied, and immediately a big man stepped forward and said.

"General, it's only Lu Bu, let me capture Hua Xiong alive!"

Seeing Hua Xiong asking for a fight, Dong Zhuo naturally had no reason not to refuse, Hua Xiong immediately rode out of the city, seeing someone going to fight, Lu Bu just smiled coldly and didn't care.

"Lu Bu of Bingzhou is here, and the general will be named. A certain family will not die under the halberd and the nameless ghost!"

"Xiliang Captain Hua Xiong, Lu Bu, take your life!"

The two horsemen charged, and Lu Bu seemed to just wave Fang Tian's painted halberd casually. This time, Fang Tian's painted halberd seemed to be effortless, but when it fell, it weighed as much as a thousand catties.

"clang!"

Hua Xiong's strength is not small, but how can he compare with Lu Bu?
Originally, he wanted to fight Lu Bu, but after receiving this blow, he immediately felt as if he was being crushed by Mount Tai.

"It's just mediocre!"

Lv Bu tested Hua Xiong's falsehood with one move, he immediately laughed, and then swung Fang Tian's painted halberd to attack continuously, and then two halberds, Hua Xiong felt his whole arm was sore and weak, he couldn't hold the long knife in his hand.

Seeing this, Hua Xiong's soul was blown away, he didn't dare to go against Lu Bufang, so he turned his horse back immediately.

Hua Xiong's horse was fast, and Lu Bu couldn't catch up with him, but with his arrogant temperament, Lu Bu didn't care at all, and pointed at Hua Xiong's back and shouted.

"Leave you alone today, go back and tell Dong Zhuo, if you don't surrender as soon as possible, I, Lu Fengxian, will not be polite!"

Hua Xiong was the number one brave general under Dong Zhuo's tent, now he was defeated after only three moves, and there was no sound at all, those Xiliang soldiers who had followed Hua Xiong out of the city boldly, suddenly followed Hua Xiong back into the city like frost. .

"Sure enough, he is really a fierce general. If he can get help from this person, why not worry about his great success?"

Dong Zhuo was really ambitious at this time, seeing Lu Bu's bravery, he naturally sighed, and Li Ru's eyes flickered when he heard this.

"General Fengxian is really brave. It only takes a few days, so Dong Zhuo can only retreat in dismay. The general has made such a great contribution, and it will be invaluable in the future to be named a marquis and worshiped as a minister."

Wei Tao understood Lu Bu very well, and praised him with a smile.

Sure enough, upon hearing Wei Tao's words, Lu Bu was overjoyed, and all the jealousy and envy that he had had at first dissipated completely.

But when Lu Bu reported it to Ding Yuan, Ding Yuan didn't praise him, instead he said sharply.

"Then Hua Xiong is also a brave general of Xiliang, since you are victorious, why don't you go forward and kill him?"

Hearing this question suddenly, Lu Bu was slightly taken aback, and Wei Xu immediately stepped forward and said.

"My lord doesn't know that the other party is fast, and the general let him go because he couldn't catch up."

"Nonsense, Feng Xian's archery skills can penetrate Yang with a hundred steps, so why can't he shoot Hua Xiong? If it's not because of his merits, I will punish him!"

Seeing Ding Yuan like this, Lu Bu's eager heart suddenly turned cold.

Wei Tao watched from the sidelines, and he already understood in his heart that it was impossible to stop Lu Bu from defecting to Ding Yuan, and the gap between the two was already huge.

Na Ding originally wanted to use Lü Bu, but also prevented Lv Bu from seeking power, restraining Lv Bu everywhere.

Although Ding Yuan's army was still led by Lu Bu's confidantes Cao Xing, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Hou Cheng, and Gao Shun, Lu Bu had no military power at all except for the temporary leadership.

In this way, to isolate the inside and outside, so that Lu Bukong has all the skills, he can only let Ding Yuan drive him.

So, wouldn't it make Lu Bu feel cold?

"Looks like it's time to try..."

Wei Tao secretly said in his heart, the reason why he decided to come this time was not to organize Lu Bu to join Dong Zhuo, and he couldn't stop it either.

He couldn't even remind Ding Yuan.

After all, they are close relatives, no matter what, now Lv Bu is Ding Yuan's adoptive son, and he is just an outsider, and he was once Ding Yuan's subordinate, so Ding Yuan would never listen to what he said.

Wei Tao's purpose was to win over the generals under Ding Yuan's account. Once Ding Yuan died, all his soldiers and horse generals were recruited by Lu Bu, and then surrendered to Dong Zhuo. Wei Tao wanted to see if there was any opportunity he could take advantage of.

Of course, among them, Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng had the most trust from Lu Bu, and Cao Xing was somewhat greedy, so it was impossible for them to be recruited by Wei Tao.

So Wei Tao's goal is Gao Shun.

Wei Tao already knew Gao Shun's loyalty, but if Ding Yuan died, it would be impossible to win him over.

As long as you are willing, it is not difficult to find out Lu Bu's character, not to mention that there is Li Su in Dong Zhuo's army who knows Lu Bu well, and he sent someone to come that night.

After hearing that Li Su was coming, Wei Tao was able to understand that he was carrying a crimson horse, and immediately came straight to Gaoshun's tent.

"General Fengxian has been dissatisfied with Governor Ding for a long time, right?"

After greeting him to sit down, Wei Tao made Gao Shun stand upright in surprise as soon as he opened his mouth.

"General Fengxian is a fierce general, but Ding Cishi's imperial envoy has Ruo family slaves. It's enough not to grant military power, and rewards and punishments for meritorious deeds are also unfair. How can this be enough to convince General Fengxian?"

"What do you mean by that?"

After a while, Gao Shun asked slowly. Although he didn't talk much on weekdays, Gao Shun had a clear understanding of these matters. He really felt that there was something wrong with Ding Yuan's treatment of Lu Bu.

It's a pity that as a subordinate, even if Lu Bu is dissatisfied with such a thing, it is impossible.

"Now that Li Su came here by virtue of his fellowship, General Lu had no choice but to see him. Li Su is now under Dong Zhuo's camp, so he must have come here to persuade General Fengxian. It's his slave."

Wei Tao's last sentence was a bit harsh, but Gao Shun was well aware of how Ding Yuan treated Lu Bu, but after hearing this, he remained silent.

After a long time, Gao Shun let out a long sigh.

"Ah... this is Ding Inspector, I'm sorry for General Fengxian. Why did Ziyu come to tell me these things? Gao is only a lieutenant general, and he still knows the truth of inseparable relationship. If he wants to persuade Master Ding to change his mind, It’s beyond my reach.”

Hearing this, Wei Tao couldn't help but frowned slightly. According to his memory, Gao Shun was a loyal person, and he was even willing to accompany Lu Bu to his death in the original history.

If there is really something wrong, out of loyalty, you should speak up and remonstrate, rather than talking about the principle of estrangement.

Wei Tao swallowed the words that he was planning to recruit Gao Shun, but after a slight silence, Wei Tao spoke.

"If General Fengxian votes for Dong Zhuo, will the general follow him?"

Gao Shun remained silent again, and finally nodded after a while.

"That's right, General Fengxian and I have the kindness of rebuilding. To obey this order is given by the general, and the master of life is General Fengxian. If the general abandons Lord Dingyuan and leaves, I will lead the army and follow him!"

Gao Shun's words were not loud, but the meaning was clear.

In this era, it is true that there are people who are loyal to the country, but in fact, more people are loyal to individuals, the kindness of support, and the love of promotion. These are the roots of many people's loyalty to the country.

This is actually easy to understand. After Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan in history, Gao Shun also followed him until his death.

Gao Shun was not a person who betrayed his kindness, but his kindness was towards Lu Bu, not Ding Yuan.

After realizing this point, Wei Tao only felt it was a pity, but fortunately Wei Tao had other things to do besides recruiting Gao Shun, so he immediately bowed to Gao Shun.

"Actually, this time I came to report to the general, but I have something else to ask."

"What's the matter?"

Originally, Gao Shun generally thought that Wei Tao was trying to recruit him, but when he heard Wei Tao say something was wrong at this time, he couldn't help being slightly taken aback in his heart.

"If General Fengxian joins Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo will definitely use General Fengxian. At that time, the defense of Luoyang must be entrusted to General Fengxian. The general is General Fengxian's deputy, and he has won the trust of General Fengxian. He is stationed in four gates. My father-in-law Cai Although Yong has a high reputation, he is not very knowledgeable about government affairs, if he stays under Master Dong's rule, he may offend Master Dong, so I ask the general to accommodate you."

Wei Tao's words are actually a bit exaggerated, and Cai Yong is not a person who is not ignorant of government affairs.

But just like Wang Yun before, this is just an excuse for speaking.

"it is good."

Gao Shun pondered for a while, and finally agreed.

Now that Gao Shun agreed, Wei Tao didn't say much anymore, just bowed his hands and left, instead of going to see Ding Yuan, he led his troops away directly.

Not long after Wei Tao left, there was a moment of chaos in Ding Yuan's army, but it subsided quickly.

"Compared to Ding Inspector, General Lu is more able to control the army. It is no wonder that Ding Inspector is extremely afraid of General Lu while relying on him. Even if you have martial courage, you can't show it."

Wei Tao let out a long sigh. In fact, Wei Tao didn't go far after leaving the barracks. There was no reason why he didn't understand the scene in Ding Yuan's camp, but he could only let out a long sigh.

"My lord, how are we now?"

Zhao Yun's face was still calm, but Wei Tao could see that he was somewhat disapproving of Lu Bu's behavior in his eyes.

Thinking about it, Zhao Yunfei is a person who forgets righteousness for profit. If he moved to another place, he would definitely not do this. He naturally looked down on Lu Bu's behavior. Hearing Wei Tao's behavior, he was a little bit apologetic for Lu Bu. unwilling.

Still young at heart.

"After Dong Zhuo accepted Ding Yuan's soldiers and horses, his power rose greatly. He will definitely persecute the princes of the court. Before the general chaos, let's take my father-in-law out and leave here."

Wei Tao really didn't want to get involved in the chaos in Luoyang. Dong Zhuo was so powerful that he wouldn't hit a stone with an egg unless he could match him alone.

"As for Dong Zhuo, it's fine if he is dedicated to serving the public, but if someone like Shi Changshi and the others do harm to the world, then we will definitely get rid of him!"
